good morning to our viewers in the west. it's friday, february 14th, 2020. welcome back to "cbs this morning." i'm anthony mason with tony dokoupil and jericka duncan. gayle king is off. ahead why the attorney general told the world that president trump's tweets make his job impossible. >> senator bernie sanders joins us talking about the presidential campaign, his critics, and how he can build on his win in new hampshire. >> and go inside an ice castle you can practically live in, in our series, american wonders. >> first, here is today's eye opener at 8:00. a forceful and unexpected challenge to president trump is coming from inside his cabinet.
8:01 am
>> the white house believes president trump himself is not bothered by this at all, that he still has confidence in his attorney general. >> mike bloomberg vaulted from curiosity to threat which means he became a target of opposition research and campaign barbs. >> we were starting off this morning, my goodness, international falls 25 below. that is your actual thermometer reading. wind chills are colder than that. we've set records already today. >> as the memorial grows here at the entrance to faye's neighborhood detectives are now calling her death a homicide. however, they are not saying who was responsible, describing it as an active investigation. >> ucsg health says it is currently treating two coronavirus patients and another is under investigation. the london natural history museum's wildlife photo award went to this photo of two mice fighting in a london tube station. what is amazing is the photographer said he had to lay on the ground for five nights just to get that one shot. yeah. i guess that's london, though. because if he came to new york he'd be seeing rats from day one.
8:02 am
yeah. in fact, by day five the rats would have beaten his -- and taken his camera. give me that. >> this morning's eye opener at 8:00 is presented by progressive. >> i would like to defend him as a new yorker but that is a new york subway for you. still, come to visit, folks. welcome back to "cbs this morning." attorney general william barr is criticizing his boss, that would be president trump, asking that he stop tweeting about the justice department. barr spoke yesterday about his decision to overrule federal prosecutors who asked for trump ally roger stone to receive a seven to nine-year prison sentence. the president tweeted that his administration, quote, cannot allow this miscarriage of justice before the sentencing request was reversed. later mr. trump congratulated the attorney general for stepping in. >> barr told abc news he made his decision without seeing the president's comments but he also said the president's tweets make his job, quote, impossible.
8:03 am
>> i cannot do my job here at the department with constant background commentary that undercuts me. i will make those decisions based on what i think is the right thing to do and i'm not going to be bullied or influenced by anybody. >> the white house says the president was senator bothered by barr's comments. >> democratic presidential contender bernie sanders is looking to build more momentum in the upcoming nevada caucus and south carolina primary. his victory in new hampshire on tuesday puts the independent senator from vermont in second place in the delegate count with 21. former mayor pete buttigieg leads with 23. senator sanders joins us from dulles, virginia on his way to campaign in north carolina. good morning, senator. thanks for being with us. >> my pleasure. >> congratulations on the victory in new hampshire. but the results there still show a significant split in the party between the moderates and the left. as we mentioned, the upcoming
8:04 am
primary in south carolina, and one of the two democratic congressmen there just said we don't want socialism. how do you broaden your constituency? >> well, look. we are taking on the entire establishment. we're taking on wall street. we're taking on the greed and corruption of the pharmaceutical industry. we're taking on the insurance companies because we believe it is time that every american has health care as a human right which is the same as every other country. at the end of the day the agenda that we have which says if you work 40 hours a week in america you should not be living in poverty, raised the minimum wage to 15 bucks an hour, make sure that all of our kids have the opportunity to get a higher education, regardless of their income. that is the agenda that the american people want. the establishment may not like it. that's what the american people want. that's why we're going to win. >> senator, i'm curious. you have this label socialist stuck to you, some from your own
8:05 am
democratic party saying they don't want socialism in south carolina referring to you. i know there is a difference between democratic socialism and socialism but why do you cling and hold on to that label democratic socialist when it seems to confuse people and give your enemies and critics an opportunity to bash you? >> well, let me just tell you something. in my view to a significant degree we are living right now under donald trump in a socialist society. the only difference is, does the government work for working people or does it work for billionaires? donald trump, before he became president, when he was in real estate, he received $800 million in tax breaks and subsidies from the government. socialism for the rich. the fossil fuel industry receives tens of billions of dollars a year in subsidies and tax breaks. that is socialism for the rich. >> but, senator, is the label confusing people and allowing your critics to hurt you politically? >> well, i did win the popular
8:06 am
vote in iowa. i did win the popular vote and win the primary in new hampshire. i think we're going to win in nevada. i think we're going to win in south carolina. working people understand we have got to finally stand up to the corporate elite and we have to have a mass political movement of working people and low income people and young people to do that. so i'm not worried about labels. we will define ourselves not let other people define us. >> senator sanders, speaking of those wins in iowa and new hampshire, you actually trail in the polls, a recent quinnipiac poll with black voters compared to bloomberg and biden. how do you plan to beat those candidates in a more diverse state? >> well, just wait and see. i don't know what the most recent poll has, but we are doing very, very well with minority, the minority communities both african-american and latino, and our coalition is going to build around minority communities, build around young people, and create an unprecedented grass
8:07 am
roots movement. look, a lot of politicians go from the top on down. that's what bloomberg is about. he is spending hundres of millions of dollars. that's fine. we don't have hundreds of millions of dollars. our movement is made up of working people, young people, and we're going to put that coalition together and take on the establishment and i believe we'll win. >> senator, the dnc just changed the rules which could allow mr. bloomberg to appear in the next debates. do you think he should be on the debate stage? >> of course not. that is what being a multi billionaire is about. some very good friends of mine who are competing in the democratic nomination. people like cory booker of new jersey, senator. julian castro worked very hard. nobody changed the rules to get them into the debate. i guess if you are worth $60 billion you can change the rules. i think that is very, very unfortunate. >> senator, let's jump ahead to the prospect of a sanders administration. you've got these ideas if you're elected how do you get them
8:08 am
through a log jam in the senate? >> because you rally the american people. the ideas that we are talking about are the ideas that the overwhelming majority of the american people want. and what i have said many, many times, i will not only be commander-in-chief as president but organizer in chief and that means i will go to kentucky, i will go to those states that are struggling and say to the people in those states, you tell your senators whether or not you think health care is a human right. you tell your senators whether you think we should raise the minimum wage, the 15 bucks an hour. tell your senators whether we take on the corruption and greed of the pharmaceutical industry, which charges us ten times more for the same medicine as charged in other countries. we rally the american people and, finally, maybe just finally, we'll have a congress that works for the american people not wealthy campaign contributors. >> senator sanders, we thank you for your time. >> thank you very much. ahead, "48 hours" investigates a crime that led police on a journey of more than a thousand miles.

people who have been there done that. >> sticking with the valentines theme if you're lucky in love this valentine's day you may have your adolescent friendships to thank for it. a study showed that the quality of friendships you establish as a teenager are the foundation for healthy, remonthacomantic relationships as an adult. a pew research survey found 78% of teens say they have one to five close friends. 98% say they have at laeft one. that's good. the author of the best selling book "under pressure, confronting the epidemic of stress and anxiety in girls" and also a cbs contributor and adolescent psychologist. good morning. >> good morning. happy valentine's day. >> indeed. so walk us through this connection between your relationships as a teenager and your love life as an adult. >> this is a really cool study. what they did is they tracked 200 people from ages 13 to 30 and they looked at what was going on in their friendships as teenagers and how that predicted the quality of their love lives
8:35 am
as adults. what they found was that the kids who expected their relationships to be of high quality could stand up for themselves and could make and keep friends, were the ones who went on to have really satisfying love lives in adulthood. >> we're talking about platonic relationships in high school and romantic ones in adulthood. >> yes. there is a lot you learn in these close, platonic friendships. you learn to be intimate and manage conflict and over time how to make a commitment to someone. the maturity that comes with sticking with a friendship. >> you have to go into these friendships with a certain set of skills or do you learn them in the friendship? >> i don't think we know that. what was so cool about the study is they actually looked at the marks we want to see kids hit along the way. at 13, what we want to see is the kids expect to be treated well and that they treat others well. so parents who coach kids into the idea of, you know, don't tolerate meanness in your friendships and then use
8:36 am
assertiveness, not aggression or being passive when you're upset. at 15 and 16 we really wanted to see that kids had friends. and sustained friendships. you know, there's a lot of drama 7th through 9th grade. that should die down. by 10th or 11th grade we want to see that kids have really found their people. if you have a 10th or 11th grader not able to make a good connection with someone, take that seriously. both for the immediate term and also the longer term. then at 17 and 18 we wanted to see kids have strong and sustained relationships, really kind of a committed friendship over time. >> why is that nonsexual intimacy for teens so important to learn? >> so the cool thing here is that you want to see intimacy without the glue of a physical relationship. you know, so often that's what holds things together when other stuff isn't working well. but when teenagers can say to someone, you know, i feel close to you and then the researchers found that the friend said i
8:37 am
feel close back to you, that that was actually a sign of really having the skills they needed to carry on into a more meaningful relationship down the line. >> what you are suggesting here is also that the parents play a really big role in giving them initial skills but also supporting them along the way. >> absolutely. i think especially for teenagers, you know, you want to have romances. you feel like, oh, i wish i had a boyfriend or a girlfriend. one thing parents can do today is if your teenager is in the lonely hearts club today i think you can say to them, don't worry about it. it does not have anything to do with how things are going to be down the line. focus on your friendships. focus on being a good friend, choosing good friends. this is what will set you up for the future. >> very good advice. all right. thank you very much. happy valentine's day to you. under pressure confronting the epidemic of stress and anxiety in girls is available in paperback right now. on today's "cbs this morning" podcast lisa answers parenting questions from how to treat anxiety in children to what to do if your child is a

8:45 am
